The chemistry that occurs in interstellar clouds consists of both gas-phase processes and
reactions on the surfaces of dust grains, the latter particularly on and in water-dominated ice …

Since Arrhenius first proposed an equation to account for the behavior of thermally activated
reactions in 1889, significant progress has been made in our understanding of chemical …

The evolution of star-forming regions and their thermal balance are strongly influenced by
their chemical composition, which, in turn, is determined by the physicochemical processes …

This Perspective presents recent advances in our knowledge of the fundamental elementary
mechanisms involved in the low-and high-temperature molecular mass growth processes to …

Photoelectron spectroscopy has long been a powerful method in the toolbox of experimental
physical chemistry and molecular physics. Recent improvements in coincidence methods …

Exoplanet atmospheres and protoplanetary disk chemistry are both active fields of research.
Chronologically, they represent opposite ends of the process of planet formation: planets …

The NH3++ H2→ NH4++ H ion–molecule hydrogen-exchange reaction is important for
understanding the mechanisms of ammonia formation in interstellar medium and …

Experimental studies of the products of elementary gas-phase chemical reactions occurring
at low temperatures (< 50 K) are very scarce, but of importance for fundamental studies of …

Despite the detection of numerous interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) for
decades, it is still a matter of debate whether they are synthesized in the gas phase or on the …

The first theoretical results regarding the gas-phase reaction mechanism and kinetics of the
CH (X2Π)+ OCS reaction are presented here. This reaction has a proposed importance in …
